Lmao I’m just imagining Antonia bringing up “I could put myself in the place of Michael Myers” hahaha

I appreciate you covering ENTP

Seems like this video is gaslighting INFPs. Paraphrasing: “You think you are misunderstood, but that’s not really what is happening. And it’s not really a problem for you. You only think you’re being misunderstood. Something else is happening to you. You are just too complicated and unique and no one could possibly understand you.” Seriously? No, I am being misunderstood, and it is frequently a problem, even as a mature adult. I am not that complicated and my close friends know me well. I have learned to deal with it and move on when it happens. INFPs are not the problem. You’re blaming the victim. I’m not looking for validation of some impossible to understand internal workings. We have excellent intuition and then we research the data to back that up. Personality type is what we naturally fall back on in a crisis, which gives us an edge. We also are excellent at “reading the room” and interpreting body language and tone. I functioned well in an STJ workforce and had the natural flexibility to fall back on in crisis those majority folks lacked. It’s maddening when I turn out to be right, the data I find shows it, and some ESTJ or ENTJ takes the credit for it later. Many personality types don’t bother to double check whether they are interpreting my words, deeds, and actions correctly. They think they know it all, so there is no need to waste my breath trying to explain. I understand you, but you don’t understand me. Another edge for INFPs. Those other types assume we are like them and they are the majority. That is the problem for us. Our patience is tried. INFPs are in the minority. This video proves my point. You are trying to justify why INFPs are not the most misunderstood or tied for most understood type. Good try.

I question this a lot myself. It's hard to grasp the concept that we should be living right now.

As an INTJ with both INFJ parents I grew up to be more of an organized INFP than an actual stereotype INTJ, not to mention my loops

Could you recommend any audiobooks that would help me better understand myself as an ENTP? I’m in my 40s now, so I’m less chaotic and destructive due to the responsibilities of adulthood, but I still feel there’s a lot of growth I need to achieve to feel content or at least to understand myself better.

For you to state that God the Father of the Christian religion is described to be like zeus is the most disgusting analogy that I have ever herd. It mens that you dont understands the tenants of Christianity and with that your ignorant intellectualism lacks wisdom and common sense. Beware that the Father created your tongue which may need correction. Think before ypu speak. Hitchkens talked loosely and his tongue was siilenced.

I LOVE how you guys are doing these 10 minute type advice videos again!

I do not like being an INFJ. Each year I take any of the online tests… I always hope it comes out to be something else. It’s painful and lonely being an INFJ.

I thought I was a dominant INFJ which made me not appear as much as such, but now I'm thinking I'm a Creative INFJ... searching and feeling through muses to carry me, feeling creatively blocked in a way that makes me feel lazy and unproductive, struggling with mundane stuff in life. On the surface I think I can appear like a Dominant INFJ when I'm "on" but definitely if people get to know me, a creative subtype. Definitely my upbringing shaped that... my mom is the type that would switch around our living room layout every month and something was always different or changed... I hate this but also find myself having a difficult time buckling down on particular paths.

😢 That's all I gotta say.

Yup... keeping myself from experiences and will not put myself in situations that I cannot reasonably predict the outcome. I'm 38 and still putting off having kids or applying at jobs that seem less promising. Unfortunately that means I am still wasting time procrastinating (which I hate) but the fear of going down a path I regret and can't account for can sometimes be debilitating. Yes, responsibility for others. It sucks. It really confuses things. Uncertainty is kryptonite. 😅

When the gentleman presenter said , some İNFPs shortcut career success by ignoring their passion and instead focussing on something they are not really interested about but knew it would bring success, my eyes literally popped out if their sockets and I felt so strangely validated. That is exactly what I did, now in my 40s I am working on my passions,multiple because I can't yet settle down on something which resonates completely with my whole being. This podcast is very accurate.

Wow

Thanks for addressing this Joel and Antonia (and Ashley for asking), this is currently a crucial issue for me that affects every domain of life. It seems that even if the successes can be verified, they bring with them a list of demands to preserve and maintain them, they are never "good enough", and may no longer serve the purposes they were originally accomplished for due to life changes. Material success for its own sake does nothing to satisfy or impress Ni Hero and Fe parent. In this situation, where Ni and Fe are essentially absent, Ti can indeed become overwhelmed and hypercritical (especially if teamed up with Ni in a loop), and Si becomes a steamer trunk packed with regrets (rather than successes) that poor blind Te has to attempt to make sense of and reconcile while lugging it around in the Se real world that ALSO doesn't satisfy Ni or Fe. It's debilitating, because the Se reality is that almost exclusively, others only appreciate material successes or references and additions to their own material successes - for an INFJ with natural aversion to and disregard for those values, the (outer and inner) world can become a forbidding, hostile, and empty place where Ni and Fe become a pair of listless vagabonds with no place to call home, scrawling graffitti in public places to pass the time 😉. Kilroy was here.

I'm in this place that Casey speaks of, and I've been here for years and normalized it to the point that I've mistyped several times. This video really does have most of the answers, as stated below, so off to stop procrastinating and into implementation.

good job Craig

The best infj video thank you this was like therapy

Maybe i'm not an infp after all.. because I've got more data points then anyone I've ever met, although because i don't get out much i probably need more data points to make that statement meaningful.
